What to weigh

Four things should drive your material choice

Get these right and the roof takes care of itself.

  • /01

    Lifespan vs. upfront cost

    a cheaper roof that needs replacing sooner isn’t always the cheaper roof.

  • /02

    Your home’s structure

    heavier materials like tile need the framing to support them.

  • /03

    SoCal sun and coastal air

    UV exposure and salt air age materials differently; what works inland isn’t always right near the water.

  • /04

    Neighborhood and HOA requirements

    some communities restrict material and color choices.

“After discovering leaks and cracks in our walls after heavy rain, we were sure damage to our flat roof was to blame. We found Asa & Swell Roofing after browsing Nextdoor recommendations, and wow are we glad we did! Asa responded nearly immediately to our inquiry for a roof inspection and came out within the next 48 hours. He provided us a thorough inspection report and repair plan, including resealing a portion of the roof, patching other noticeable damage, and cleaning the entire roof. His team was efficient and respectful during the repair process. They showed up on time and kept in communication with us throughout the day. The before and after pictures that Asa took absolutely blew us away. We’re very impressed with the professionalism and quality of the work from everyone at Swell and would highly recommend this team to anyone looking to have roof work done.”

“I had an absolutely excellent experience working with Asa Wolfe and the entire Swell Roofing crew! From start to finish, Asa went above and beyond to make my new roof selection and installation process stress-free and successful! Asa’s knowledge, expertise, and customer focus is truly incredible. He carefully listened to my needs, discussed options, showed me samples, and his excellent communication kept me fully informed and confident through every step of the process. I was never left waiting or wondering what came next. The finished roof is a great match to the existing roof and the installation is flawless! If you’re looking for a new roof and want a company that is proactive, responsive, knowledgeable, and dedicated to achieving the best outcome, Swell Roofing is the one. I cannot recommend them enough and absolutely loved working with Asa!”

“Asa and Swell Roofing were pros. Reliable, thoughtful, gave us options, and showed up when he said he would. He fixed a roof problem that had been plaguing us for years, and that other roofers had misdiagnosed. Great experience, would recommend.”

The crew worked quickly and efficiently, and Asa communicated with us every step of the way. He was incredibly easy to work with and made the whole experience stress-free. We would absolutely hire them again for any future roofing needs!”

“Asa and the team at Swell Roofing are amazing! They did a superb job at re-tiling and fixing the rotted wood on my roof. Their work was professional, quick, and affordable. They are your best choice for roofers in the greater LA area. 10/10 recommend!”

“So happy with Swell Roofing. They were recommended by a friend and I highly recommend them. They were super professional, sent updates with pictures. Did a fantastic job! Call them, you won’t be disappointed.”

“Our home insurance company required roof replacement, being over 20 years old. We got a few quotes, all estimates were close. Decided to hire Swell roofing based on previous reviews and craftsmanship shown in pics. Tore down the old roof and installed new one instead of the cheaper second layer over the old one. Throughout the project communicated with Asa, he was available all the time to give us updates and answer any questions. Everything happened as estimated, there was even a test rain right before final inspection. The insurance company lifted the non renewal. Pheww!”

“Swell Roofing performed an inspection on my two story house. Submitted the same day a fair quote with pictures of repairs required. After agreeing on the work, the job was performed in a timely matter. Old material was cleaned up and removed. Pictures sent on worked completed. Will definitely used Swell Roofing again. Thank you,”
